HT1338 running OS X 10.5.8 on macbook, want to install iCloud, how can I upgrade

How can I upgrade to install iCloud?

If you don't have at least a Core2Duo MacBook, you won't be able to use iCloud in Mac OS X. A CoreDuo or CoreSolo MacBook is not compatible with 10.7. It is compatible though with Windows 7, which is compatible with iCloud. Some iCloud services work with pre-10.7.2 systems, but not all.
Rosetta is not compatible with 10.7. So you won't be able to run applications made for pre-2006 Macs.
That said, read these tips for upgrading to 10.7:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2465
10.8:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3761
And getting iCloud
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2551
Some links on the iCloud tip that may be useful no longer work, so asking on the iCloud forum is probably best:

I had previously purchased the programs "Pages" and "Numbers" and they are on my iPhone and iPad I was told that the programs would automatically copy a version of itself for the iMac to be running them but I don't see it installed. How can I install them

I had previously purchased the programs "Pages" and "Numbers" and they are on my iPhone and iPad I was told that the programs would automatically copy a version of itself for the iMac to be running them but I don't see it installed. How can I install for free? I see that I could go to the apple store and purchase them again but I belibve that since I had already purchased them; I would get a free copy for my Imac. Do I got something confused here? Please help.

Whoever told you that was misinformed or lying. Those applications are sold separately for the iOS platform and the Mac platform.
Go to the Mac App Store to purchase Pages and Numbers for your Mac. They're $20 each. If you are running an older version of Mac OS X that can't use the Mac App Store, you can purchase install media from Apple.

How can i upgrade from iphoto 7.1.5 to 8.1.2 on an older iMac running OSX 10.6.8 ?

How can I upgrade from iphoto 7.1.5 to 8.1.2 on an older iMac running OSX 10.6.8 ?

With the above listed config that I have (iphoto 7.1.5 on an older iMac running OSX 10.6.8), how can I move my iPhoto library from this old iMac (2006) to my NEW iMac (2011) that is running iPhoto 9.5.1 ?
To open an iPhoto 7.1.x version in iPhoto '11 you need to run the iPhoto Library Upgrader. See this Support document:
iPhoto '11: About the Library Upgrade
Download and install the upgrader, then run it on your iPhoto 7.1.5 library. After that, iPhoto will be able to open your library and upgrade it to version 9.5.1. And you will be able to merge the libraries with if Library Manager.

I have had this problem for close to a year. I have an Extreme base station, two Airport Express's and multiple G4 Mac's with up to date software. I have spent a huge amount of time trouble shooting, resetting, reapplying software and finally calling Applecare without any help. It would be great to get this problem solved.

Please boot in safe mode and test. Still slow? If you connect to a wireless network, you may have to connect with Ethernet in safe mode.
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode.)

I suspect you have the original, 1G iPod touch. Those can only go as high as iOS 3.1.3,
If y ohave a 2G those can go as high as 4.2.1
Identifying iPod models
To update
The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5 and later.
Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes as far as your iPod model allows
iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later.
To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

anybody have a suggestion? I need to find out what my key code is to connect another pc to my airport, I am running snow leopard. I need the hexidecimal code, 12 characters. How can I find it?

You can get the Equivalent Network Password from the menu options of the AirPort Utility as follows:
Start the AirPort Utility; select the AirPort, and then, select Manual Setup.
From the Utility's menu bar, select Base Station, and then, Equivalent Network Password to reveal the hexidecimal key code.

Mine is Mac OS X 10.5.8, how can I upgrade to 10.6?

Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If so Contact Apple in your Country to Purchase a Snow Leopard Disc...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
In the US...
1-800-MY-APPLE or 1-800-676-2775
After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

If they are the grey discs which came with the iMac, then they will be machine specific and will not work on the MBP anyway. You will need to purchase a retail copy of Snow Leopard from the Apple Store for about $29 and upgrade from that. I presume your MBP is Intel and not G4.
Good Luck

How can I upgrade to OSX Lion when I am running OSX 10.5.8?

I am currently running OSX 10.5.8 on my MacBook and have no idea how to upgrade to OSX Lion as I do not have Snow Leopard. Can anyone help? Thanks!

You can order a Snow Leopard 10.6 install disk for $29 as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM and 5gb of free space on your hard drive. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
Or you can wait until August when Apple will sell Lion on a USB Flash Drive for $69

I a running 10.6. on a 2.1 ghz intel core 2 duo. Can i upgrade to mountain lion or will it slow down

I a running 10.6. on a 2.1 ghz intel core 2 duo. Can i upgrade to mountain lion or will it slow down?

Read the following technical specification
This will tell you what facilities your computer needs to be upgraded to Mountain Lion.
Pay particular attention to the amount of RAM. Apple says you need 2GB, most people here would recommend 4GB.
When you are satisfied you are equipped, you will need to use App store to buy the download ... and away you go.

I have an imac, intel 2 duo. OS 10.6.8. Suddenly my desktop is showing two thin lines running from top to bottom, each about 2" from either side. How can I get rid of them?

That's strange...
Resetting PRAM might help: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
If that doesn't help, I'd recommend contacting AppleCare.
it seem to be lcd problem

1 app, 3 devices, 1 iCloud - how can I run the same game on different devices?

My wife and I share one iTunes account and one iCloud account for 2 iPhone 5's and an iPad. Our home laptop is a PC running windows 7. We are not able to both play the same game (specifically Carcassone) at the same time on different devices which is frustrating, how can I make this happen? Do I need two separate accounts? Can I have two accounts with a PC? We don't want to sacrifice the photostream to get it though.
Thank you,
Jacob

Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.
